I saw this life-hack about how you can lightly trace notes on banana skins with toothpicks and then the next day the notes will show up like magic.
The person writing the tip suggested writing sweet notes for your kids on their bananas. I promptly went and traced notes on all of our bananas and then immediately forgot about it, until the next day when I heard Victor screaming about how the bananas were talking to him.
I acted like he was insane and like I couldn’t see any notes on the bananas, and asked if maybe he needed to go lay down and rest, but then he was all “I recognize your handwriting, dumb-ass. Why are you writing threatening letters on the bananas?” and I was like “Because we were out of post-its?” But then I finally admitted that I was just practicing, because I thought it would be funny to write paranoid demands on bananas at the grocery store, so that when people get them home they’ll be all “What the fuck? Are these bananas talking to me? WHAT DOES IT MEAN?” Then Victor just shook his head and walked out of the room. Probably because he couldn’t stand how awesome I am.
PS. I suppose you could also write sweet, complimentary things on anonymous bananas, like “You’re so beautiful” and junk, but honestly I think having a banana hitting on me would be way creepier than one telling me to “Act natural. You’ll be contacted soon.” It’s probably just me.
PPS. I can only think of about 6 things to write on stranger’s bananas so if you have any suggestions, please leave them.

Howsabout “This banana will self-destruct 30 seconds after eating it.”
If you were magic, then you could write on the inside of the banana skin, to only be seen after it’s completely consumed, “Oh, I forgot to tell you, I have a rash.” OMG rampant banana STDs!!
Or

God, that’s cute!
I found out the other day that my 21-month old nephew loves bananas to the extent that, from half a store away he spotted them and started screaming, “BANANAS! Bananas bananas! Want BANANAS!” I should tell my sister to scratch “Time to go night-night” in the skins. It might save her a few migraines.
Don’t turn around!
Yours should have said , Hi, Victor
I once scratched “Don’t kid yourself. You know you did it.” on a banana and my ex told me he cheated on me with his favorite barista at Starbucks. I still can’t believe he confessed because of accusatory fruit. Also, I haven’t had Starbucks since.

If you are to leave the Bananas in thE grocery store I would write “Check out the melons over there.”

“Don’t touch me, asshole”
“Banana hammock”
“Eat more grapes”
“How YOU doin?”
“Bruises hurt”

I shouldn’t be telling you this, but you can also use a needle to poke holes in the skins every 1/2 inch or so down the banana. when you have the needle inserted you move it back and forth. Then, when the person opens the banana it falls apart in slices.
I say, hit victor with both.
And maybe “Happy Breakfast, Motherfucker”
“Eat me and I will take your soul.”
“I’m what death tastes like.”
“Goodbye John.” (Write that on enough bananas and you’re BOUND to get one picked up by a John.)

Also, I think it would be awesome to write a different message each day “5 days” “4 days” “3 days” “2 days” “1 day . . .” so it looks like the apocolypse is being spelled out in bananas, but you might want to do that one at home because I have a feeling it would cause a terrorist alert if you did it in the grocery store.
Since my bananas are only seen and eaten by me, unless I develop intermittent amnesia, writing messages on the ones at home is a waste of time. The grocery store, however …

Especially since they were writing their own NAMES on the bananas and then claiming that “It wasn’t ME!

How about, “Don’t even think about it, you dumbass fetish freak?” Makes people rethink the phallic produce purchases.
Of course, I’d need to know what the word count capabilities of an average sized banana are so I can know whether or not I should mail fruit baskets with my manuscript etched into the bananas to lit agents around the world. It could be like seeing the Virgin Mary in the mold in your refrigerator, it’s a divinely inspired sign you should rep my book.

You want to know what is even better? Actually writing on a banana. No joke. Get a Bic pen and go crazy. It’s the most wonderful surface. Like writing on a baby’s bottom. Not that I’ve ever had a chance to compare.

Also I am adding “Write on Strangers’ Bananas” to the daily checkoff list on my iPad (recurring). I like to be organized about these things, although sadly I don’t come into contact with all that many strangers’ bananas. But it’s good to be optimistic – Law of Attraction and all that happy crappy.

You guys are so hilarious!! But I think you could take it one step further and add “worms”. Poke a spaghetti noodle through one end of the banana and let it sit overnight. When somebody bites into it, they’ll think it’s a worm. Haha. It would be even funnier if you put “one of us has worms” on the outside of one in a whole bunch.

When my nerd friends and I were in high school, we used to write random, anonymous notes with pen on bananas and leave them places – peoples’ doorsteps, on top of cars (strangers’ cars…each others’ cars…whatever). Sometimes, we’d skip the notes altogether, and just leave bananas. Yep. We were totes awesome. It’s funny how the random, unexpected banana (containing a message, or not) can be ridiculously, gigglingly menacing…

PS – Dude, it tells me your last post title below – I will kill everybody. You do care about the little people (and by that I mean drunks and alz heimers patients)!

Push a needle in and waggle it and you can slice a banana without peeling it and with no visible sign of tampering. Now you can write ‘Pre-Sliced’ or ‘I’m all cut up’ on the outside.
The best time to write has to be just before your loved one packs their lunch box. It will freak them out when they know they packed a perfect banana and when they open the box it has writing on it >:-)
This is PRICELESS! I can’t wait to go fuck with my kids…I mean, write them love notes. Ahem. I’m thinking something like “eat more apples” or “maybe next time I’ll peel YOUR skin BWAHAHAHAHAH!” I’m still working on the ominous messages.

My husband used to manny for some friends of ours that were on-call nurses. Lots of late nights. Any way, they had this really old cat that was always puking up something. One night Chris got home and realized he had cat vomit on his shoe. He had stepped in it somewhere in their house. He called our friends and whispered “there’s cat vomit in your house” and then hung up. That is the warning I’d scratch into some unsuspecting shopper’ bananas.

oh if only I could get close enough to a banana.. But at $14kg well just looking at them costs a fortune. I am banana deprived! So in my case writing “You can’t afford me” or “Try an orange, she’s cheap” sort of fits..
Hey, nice pants.
You want me to peel your skin and eat your insides?
Too scary?
If you really want to freak someone out with bananas, use a needle to poke holes along it, wiggling the needle back and forth each time you poke a hole. Do this along the entire length of the banana, and you’ve basically managed to “slice” the banana without opening it. Then when someone opens it, it’s already sliced, and they freak out. I usually just tell people “Oh, it’s the newest thing in fruit, didn’t you know? Already sliced banana. Genetically altered.”
There is bound to be a news article by tomorrow afternoon talking about how relationships have failed, families were destroyed, and people were flocking to the nearest psychiatric “care facilities”.

Is it sad that the first thing I thought of was to quietly inscribe a URL onto a banana bunch in the supermarket. Carve TheBloggess.com (or another URL) on the sly as you “examine” a few banana bunches, then buy one bunch (it’s only fair) and see if anyone comes to your site via banana marketing.

You should make one of them say something along the lines of “That’s not a banana in my pocket.”

Seriously. Think of the possibilities. Flowers are such a wasteful thing to send. You send some fruit and not only are you saying you care, or you don’t care, you’re also giving someone food. Organic food, too, if you wanted to play it that way.

Since we’re on the topic of bananas…I have to tell you my banana/zombie dream I had a few years ago. First off, I should tell you that I’m military and at the time I was part of a pre-commissioning crew. We lived, worked, and trained (emphasis on the firefighting portion of training) onboard, of a new destroyer being built in the shipyards. One night I dreamt that the zombie apocalypse had occurred. Zombies were all over the shipyard and trying to come onboard the ship. Everyone was freaking out, trying to figure out what to do. Then, all of the sudden, an idea hits me!
EVERYONE ELSE: “Oh SPIT man! What are we gonna do?!”
ME: “You know how when you get a leg cramp and people tell you to eat a banana because your body needs potassium? Well…maybe that’s the reason why zombies moan and shuffle around. They don’t really need blood and brains; they need potassium and they just don’t know how to get it. So let’s feed them bananas!” (I know…you’re thinking “Sure, give the shambling zombies potassium so they’ll be able to run at you faster. But hey this is my dream; it doesn’t have to make SENSE.)
People run down and grab all the boxes of bananas in the food storage area, drag them back topside and start chucking bananas at the zombies, and watching as the undead scrambled after the bananas on the ground and sat down to eat them. But pretty soon we ran out and the panic started again.
EE: “Oh SPIT man! We’re out of bananas. What are we gonna do now?!”
ME: “Uhhhh…PKP!* PKP has potassium in it lets hose them down with PKP!”
So we grabbed all of the PKP bottles and started hosing down zombies and watched while the zombies rolled around in the powder. Then I woke up. I love my dreams, lol!
*PKP (potassium bicarbonate) is a dry purple powder fire extinguisher used in fighting flammable liquid fires. Firefighting had been drilled into all of our brains, lol, quite well apparently and for a good reason…when you’re out on the ocean and something catches on fire, you can’t call 9-1-1…you’re on your own.
Hilarious! I’m totally doing this to freak out my husband.
Your blog makes me laugh every time I check in to see what you’ve been up to.
Personally, I thought harry potter and put “Kill the Spare” on one banana and left it out for my fiancee. He was so amused he took a picture and put it on facebook.
I just discovered your blog last week from the “Happiness Project” blog and I quickly sent a link to all of my friends and family because I think you are so freaken funny. I love your sense of humor! My eyes well up with every entry. Thanks…so happy to have found you.
I lived in Russia for a while (having graduated with a degree in Russian) and one of my all-time favorite stories was from a friend who grew up, like all kids at that period, being forced to volunteer at a collective farm. He and his hooligan friends made a practice of lightly carving (similarly to your banana trick) obscenities into the rinds of tiny watermelons . By the time they were fully-grown, the words would be splayed across the otherwise perfectly good fruit. I’m sorry if any sweet, kind babushki were offended at the market, but it’s one of those things that kinda make one giggle.

I did it tonight. Hit and run banana messaging. I went into my local grocery, picked up a bunch of nanners, hid behind the tomato display, and etched two messages on the same bunch. Then I said to my son (who was totally in on it and thought it was brilliant), Y’know, we already have bananas at home, so I’ll just put these back, replaced them, and went on my merry.
I’ll be giggling and wetting myself with glee in bed tonight because of the audacity of my own wit. I’m already mapping out the groceries all over my new hometown for my next victims. And believe when I say I truly have nothing better to do.

I just purchased a bunch of bananas and am going to write notes, except I’m the only one who eats them, so I’ll just be writing them to myself. I think instead of anything threatening, I’ll write stuff like, “Go get ‘em, tiger!” and “You’re the top banana!”
But for other people, I would write, “Please stop hurting me.”

All I can think of is banana guerrilla tactics at the grocery store. (which is funny because this is the kind of thing I was thinking at 4:30 this morning). The bananas could serve purpose as a political platform to educate (or scare the shit out of) other shoppers. Sure you’d be arrested, but maybe for a good cause. I was thinking it might be ok since I’ve never been arrested and once probably would be ok.

Late at night, I started with “SPLIT.” The next day he didn’t touch his bananas and apparently didn’t notice the message. Tonight I’ve written “BREAD.” Tomorrow I’ll write “CREAM PIE.”. If he doesn’t get it by then I will keep it up but I’ll be on the lookout for a new chef! Why does he have to spoil all the fun??? Pudding, smoothie, Foster. I could go on and on ……
LOVE your blog. Went to Home Goods today. Alas, no chickens.
Holy Sow! I just peed my pants while reading this post!
Say my name bitch!
THIS. IS. GENIUS!! (and extremely hilarious!!!)
“Yes, that dress makes you look fat”!
“Your brother is a better kisser”"!
I’m pretty sure “Eat Me” does the trick. In more than one way.

Thought you would enjoy this!
For a Portal/Liar Paradox combo reference, “The banana is a lie”
Yes, yes. I just found you. I know, I’m late. Holy crap you just made me laugh hysterically for the second time today. I don’t have the patience to read through these comments to find hate mail…
The BF loves bananas, I hate them (I can’t explain why or I’ll barf…no, it’s not sexual, SICKO!). I’m thinking some messages are in order. He’s been really kind to not eat them around me because I start to gag (this is partially self-preserving, as my gagging is not conducive to a pleasant snack…), but he occasionally leaves them on the kitchen counter which starts to get me queasy all by itself, ruining MY meal (I made a space for them to live in a cabinet I never use). I might be just as evil as you – in a good way – but I’m not that creative, so I’ll just piggyback on your creativity if you don’t mind…
For him:
“Baby is not yours”
“Size doesnt matter”
“Better in than out”
“Wont make you homo”
“Eat me to grow”
For her:
“He knows”
“Size does matter”
“Better in than out”
“Not a tampon”
“For practice”
What an awesome thing to do.
How about writing…
Who’s that guy with the knife behind you?
She DOES know
You don’t want to know where I’ve been
Quick, let me out!
How would YOU like ME to peel YOU?
I’d rather be an orange.
I’m not coming out without a fight.
I just wanted to thank you. I read your bana post and started laughing so hard that I started to cry. The people outside my shop started to stare at me weirdl. I waved them away and temporarily forgot about my migraine.
Thank you.
i think you should write things like “insert where? oh no” or “i hate gwen stefani”.
“What, I can’t hear you, there’s a BANANA in my ear!”
“Unzip me!”
“Little, yellow, different…”
Enjoy…
“Step away from the banana.”
(My brother had a college friend who was a deputy sheriff in a small Wyoming town who was once called to the scene of a rancher having… um… marital relations with a cow. Law enforcement gold: “Step away from the cow.”)

I just used the idea of this post in a practical joke for my entire office. My coworker and I wrote on over 40 bananas and came in early today (Halloween) to leave them on everyone’s desk. Confusion and giggling ensued at such messages as “Hello Clarice”, “Self Destruct in 5…4..3..2..1…”, “Banana Hamock,” and “Grrr-Arrgh” for a zombie banana.
Thanks for the idea, Bloggess!
Sometimes a banana is just a banana.
